How to Use Affirmations in Daily Life

Affirmations focus our attention so that our thoughts and actions reflect our attention, our mindfulness. Disciplining our minds enables us to become masters of our lives. 

Try these affirmations, or design your own!

• On awakening: Thank You, Creator, for this day. Guide me in all my activities.
• When showering: Let me flow with the energy of this day.
• On seeing your reflection in the mirror: I am a perfect child of God. May I see all others in this light.
• When putting on your shoes: I step into this day confidently understanding my purpose.
• When opening doors: Thank You, God, for the surprises, joys and miracles today.
• When traveling: God is protecting and watching over me and all travelers.
• When eating: Thank You, God, for this food. I honor all who have helped bring it to my table. May my body be completely nourished by it. 

Some suggestions: 

• When stopped at red lights: Pray for someone.
• When checking the time: Take time and connect with God, if only for a moment.
